Wedding guestbook

Completed a guestbook for one wedding, it was created for one bride who asked me to help. The photos are pretty gloomy though, because I was smart enough to think: "Great, I've done it! I'm going to give this book to the bride and then I'll take the photos with nice light and all..." - without a single thought of WHAT I was going to take pics of when I'd give away the guestbook =))) So the photos were made at night with poor lighting and not much care about the way it looks - just to show the bride that the order is complete.
So, the photos are:
It's a white satin book with deep purple ribbons and a title "Our wedding" - stitched and filled with seed beads and microbeads.

The details of the microbeaded title, I loved how it turned out, I used 5 hues of beads:

And the inside:
Very simple, ring bound, lilac pages with some little purple/white/silver stamping.

Having some cute ribbons on this book, I'm going to enter a challenge:Dream valley challenge #10 - using a ribbon =)
